He Didn't Get the Surrender Memo!

 It's the perfect storm for conquest: a dysfunctional kingdom reels under a weak monarch.  A powerful order of warrior maidens turns to infighting after suddenly losing its  charismatic leader. Worst of all, a disciplined and blooded imperial army stands ready to invade and dominate. If ever a moment called for grit, competence, and an utter lack of wishful thinking it is now. Enter Harald of the Vales. Family man and teller of tales.  Warrior's warrior. It's time the Empire got one thing straight: the land of Kaerlia will never be its for the taking. 

An intricate and thrilling debut fantasy novel from libertarian prof (and son of economist Milton Friedman) and Society for Creative Anachronism grandee, David D. Friedman.

    The idea is not to bad but unfortunately at times I felt as if I was reading the synopsis, bullet points and not the full story. There is little depth to the characters and I was unable to connect with them and quite honestly by the end of the book (which took a while to eventually finish) I didn't really care about them either.

    I liked the style, and the lack of "heroic gloss". It's not a masterwork, but it was self-consistent and I found it entertaining and thought-provoking.

    Having said that, it won't be everyone's cup of tea, especially if they know what they like and like what they know.

    I liked the story, and once I appreciated the dialogue-style I found it flowed fairly well. Then I did grow up reading Celtic myths etc, so felt right at home - not everyones cup of tea....

    Yes, the main character always had a trick up his sleeve to win the day, but that's the nature of this type of character - Robin Hood wouldn't be the same if he always lost....

    At the end, I went looking for others by this author - says it all for me...
